It’s true

I don't know who those people are who label their jars in kitchen and pantries but I'm pretty sure they're not people who cook often because if you're a person who haunts the kitchen most of the day and cooks and cleans and empties out jars of their contents monthly then you know most jars don't have the same stuff going in as labelled.

Sometimes you find an empty jar that has a few spoons of whatever it was labelled as and fill it up with something else since you've realised ragi though fastidiously labelled in its beautiful glass jar isn't something you eat on the regular and perhaps won't buy it again.
And now there's rajmah in the ragi jar.

Ditto with a jar of croix seeds that now holds a steady mound of leftover bits of spaghettis.

So really, labelling jars is silly.
There, I said it!
